Poetry Challenge – September Prompt

September Poetry Prompt – Seasons

Write a limerick poem on the change of the season and post on your blog before 28th September. If you live in the Northern hemisphere, write about the onset of Autumn. Those living in the South, including Ineke and Amanda, write about the onset of Spring.

Amanda’s challenge is in English and Ineke’s is in Afrikaans, (translations in English).

The challenge is open to everyone, from complete beginners to advanced writers or aspiring poets. The challenge will run from March to October, 2018 and will include writing tips and link backs for contributors. Beginner poet, hobbyist or Advanced writer We hope you will join in.

You can write in either language, however, please post a link back, and comment at both WordPress blogs to indicate your interest and include the tag A and I Poetry Challenge.

A philosophic Australian writes here, one who admits to loving Scandinavia. I'm interested in global politics, but scratch the surface and you'll find I am a practical Environmentalist with an Egalitarian bent trying to unleash a little creativity.
Scandinavian culture, literature and traditions are close to my heart, even though I am Australian. Travel broadens the mind, so I travel whenever I can. I am an avid reader, I enjoy photography, writing and a variety of crafts, particularly traditional art forms. You are always welcome to stop by at S.t.P.A.

Amanda, I posted a limerick for the A & I challenge in August (I was ahead of time!), but I think my pingback did not work. Would you mind adding it for this month? https://wp.me/p9ruaE-5gt. I will also ask Ineke. I’m still working on a different contribution for this month.

Yes, Hester. I certainly will add it to the challenge round up later this month. You are not late at all!! I am away on holiday at the moment but will post in a week or so. Thanks for contributing. Did you enjoy writing something different this month?

Well done, Inneke. I am flat out moving house and then I am off to Japan. My blog will have to wait. Would you be in a position to do the round up post or a reminder in English and email it to me.? It is ok if you can’t.
